What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A wind direction adjustment device comprising:
 a cylindrical case body; 
 a movable louver provided with a contour portion and a manipulation portion; and 
 a support section which pivotably supports the movable louver inside the case body, 
 wherein the support section includes:
 a pivoting base portion which is provided on one of the case body side and the movable louver side, 
 a ball portion which is provided on the pivoting base portion and at least a portion of the ball portion is positioned on a coaxial line with the manipulation portion at a neutral position of the movable louver, 
 a ball accommodating portion which is provided on the other of the case body side and the movable louver side and accommodates the ball portion, 
 one abutting portion which is provided on the movable louver, and 
 another abutting portion which is provided on the pivoting base portion and sets a first pivoting end of the movable louver by abutting against the one abutting portion, and 
 wherein a soft member is integrally provided with the ball portion and the another abutting portion, and 
 the case body comprises a structure provided inside the cylindrical case body and setting a second pivoting end of the movable louver, and when the movable louver is further pushed using the manipulation portion in a state in which the one abutting portion and the another abutting portion abut against each other, the another abutting portion is pinched and a rear end portion of the contour portion abuts against the structure. 
 
 
     
     
       2. The wind direction adjustment device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the another abutting portion is formed on the ball portion. 
 
     
     
       3. The wind direction adjustment device according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the another abutting portion covers at least a portion of the ball portion. 
 
     
     
       4. The wind direction adjustment device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the one abutting portion is provided on the ball accommodating portion.
